Happy Detoxing Day

…..or In Pillory

I’m completely over the pox
Constitution as strong as an ox
But I’d like a wee glass
As I sit on me ass
So be a doll and open these stocks!

There’s gotta be a way.

Must. Celebrate. Detoxing Day.

Here’s lookin’ at you, kid.

Thank God the Twelve Days of _oxing are over and done with. Now before you run out and schedule a real intervention – only one of those glasses held a real alcoholic beverage.

Today’s Blog brought to you by:
